Abstract

This paper presents a modular knowledge organization system within a pilot project for e-Participation in the EU law-making process. The ontological approach here presented is the ground of a web platform allowing citizens and other stakeholders to actively participate in public consultations. Citizens can provide comments and amendments, as well expressing sentiments on pre-legislative documents. The modeling approach follows a pure RDF(S)/OWL implementation for all the produced contributions (documents, comments, amendments, statistics), with the aim to made them available as Linked Open Data.
